UP Dash 8 40C Down the grade
Author: railstiesballast

Be careful out there!
The photographer is standing almost foul of the near track as this big GE eases down the grade past a falling rock detector fence on my SWP.
Could he be ambushed by another movement coming up from behind?  Maybe he/she had a lookout.  Think safety.
The locomotive is an Atlas, the camera was my iPhone using "Camera Pixels" to capture a set of focus stacked images, then Helicon Focus to "render" the the stack into this image.
While not a big UP fan, I sure like the results here.
